Exiv2 0.17.1 is out...

Today, Andreas Huggel has released Exiv2 library version 0.17.1. It's an important bugs fix release. It provides fixes for a build issue on OS X, a bug that didn't allow to delete the last XMP tag and several potential crashes. I recommend to update your local copy to use with digiKam... See changelog for details.

Remember this library is the core implementation used to manage and manipulate photo metadata. In digiKam 0.10.0, Exiv2 is used to play with XMP, thrue our libkexiv2 KDE interface.

Now that this update is out of the door, next stage will be to merge the unstable Exiv2 development branch with trunk, and TIFF write support will be ready for some initial testing soon.
